Siren's Call by Yvette Wroby
This is a new book about a family who have a longtime connection to the Sainters, and about other people she knows who follow the mighty St Kilda FC. Anybody read it yet? Apparently it just came out.
Your friendly neighbourhood samurai.

Re: Siren's Call by Yvette Wroby
it has been out a few months
and has been a good read- -
many will connect with the stories of family events and fitting in football family as well
not sure where you can buy now- the club have been great in supporting it.

Yep, a very good read!

Re: Siren's Call by Yvette Wroby
YES! a fine memoir! I had the good fortune to meet Yvette while waiting for the train to a Saints game last year. She is a very good writer, but also a very passionate Saints person. The book is a fine read, a good mix of laughter and tears. Yvette can usually be contacted at her website: www.cartoonswork.com.au I'm not 100% certain, but I think you may still be able to purchase copies from the lady herself at the Victory Room pre-game!

I hadn't heard of it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
